A train travels due south at 32 m/s (relative to the ground) ina rain that is blown toward the south by the wind. The path of each
raindrop makes an angle of 65° with the vertical, as measured by an observer stationary on the ground. An observer on the train,
however, sees the drops fall perfectly vertically. Determine the speed of the raindrops relative to the ground.
